Fastest Motor on 6s?

If it where me, I would follow snellemin's advice and also use a smaller wheel/tire combo. I would probably make my own tires and put them on short course wheels. Hitting that speed will take an immense amount of custom work not matter what. Personally, I would pay close attention to the land speed record holders body styles and how they setup their vehicles.

I have no idea how you get the impression that I think my experience matters more than any other. I can only imagine that you didn't read my posts correctly. I think no such thing and am always prepared to learn from people who's open minds and creative character have allowed them to explore new ground.

Correct me if I'm wrong but it seems to me that snellemin's only post in this thread concerns motor choice and nothing about wheels or tyres. I find that a useful maxim is always to read 3 times before typing.

Strange how you now state that hitting 100mph will take immense effort when your previous post implied that it was easy. And if you think it's easy to make tyres, I suggest you do so. You may find it harder than you think.

Your suggestion that short-course-based wheels would be suitable as a basis for a speed-run wheel is very interesting, if somewhat misguided. I'm not sure why you chose short course. I tried buggy wheels with on-road tyres ( inconclusively )...



However, I'm not convinced short-course wheels would be an improvement. Unless you have a persuasive argument.
